Odd problem here: since upgrading to 18 (at least, I didn't notice it before) I can't get the keyboard shortcuts to work to refresh the page. I have to either select in the toolbar symbol or go to the drop down menu.

Hello starhorsepax, check it in Safe Mode, in Safe Mode window select "Start in Safe Mode" and see if this happen again, if not then see: Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

(If the problem does not happen in Safe Mode, it is most likely because of an extension, theme or hardware acceleration).


thank you
